Incidentally, if you've seen the film adaptation of this novel, don't expect the huge emotional outbursts that the filmmakers felt so compelled to insert. But if you enjoy skillfully constructed prose and don't mind a book where very little happens (at least in plot terms), then you'll be in for a treat. This doesn't exactly make for the most "exciting" listening. Expect to hear extended interior contemplations of things as mundane as buying flowers and baking a cake. Instead, what you get is mostly the inner thoughts of three very fascinating women in very different circumstances. The plot is the least important element of this book and as such, is very slight. If you are such a listener, then this book is definitely not for you. Most audiobook listeners prefer a strong plot or at least some sort of clear linear thread to pull them through long hours of commuting. All this said, The Hours is still somewhat difficult to recommend. Even better, he is very skilled at created fully realized characters (a *very* refreshing change from most best-selling fiction). Although he veers into over-writing at times (not unusual for a newer, over-enthusiastic novelist), author Michael Cunningham clearly has a way with the English language. Compared to many best-sellers, this book actually displays literary prowess by its author. Forever too far by abbi glines6/24/2023 Their relationship has been an emotional affair from the very beginning, a constant struggle to reconcile their pasts with the future they wished to build together, their families playing a crucial role in that struggle. All the odds were against them, from family history to upbringing, but they weathered the storms, put their differences aside and simply connected as two souls who craved unconditional love more than anything else in life. We watched Rush and Blaire, two young people who could not be any more different if they tried, fall in love hesitantly but irrevocably. “This sweet, determined, sexy-as-hell blonde walked into my life and gave me a reason to live.” Rush reached out and slipped his hand into my hair and tangled his fingers around the strands. “What changed you? You’re so completely different than that guy I met back in June,” I said, smiling at his confused face. Thankfully, we leave them in a happy place, with the right ending and with the type of bond they desperately needed from the very first time they laid eyes on each other. Saying goodbye to a beloved series is always a bitter sweet experience, but when a story has meant so much to you for so long and singlehandedly cemented your love of the New Adult genre, knowing we would not be revisiting these characters again feels like losing old friends.

Moo book matthew van fleet6/24/2023 Children will learn the names for male and female, adult and young of each variety (“Mommy ewe, Daddy ram, Lambs just born”). Touch and sound combine when listeners discover a rubber duck among the real ones and push a pad that makes the toy squeak. Nimble fingers can manipulate pages that include lifting flaps to reveal surprises, pulling and pushing tabs that create animal actions, and touching textures that represent animal fur and feathers. PreS–This interactive board book dazzles the senses by portraying farm animals’ sounds and textures. Using a formula similar to its predecessors, Cat and Dog, Van Fleet's interactive board book identifies farm animals using simple, playful rhymes: "Mommy cow,/ Baby calf,/ Shaggy daddy bull./ Moo cow,/ Milk the cow-/ grab the udder, pull!" (The farmer's hands milk the cow at the pull of a tab, while a cat turns its mouth toward the spraying milk.) Textures-a woolly sheep, a duck's downy chest feathers-provide a touch-and-feel aspect, while flaps and pop-ups make this a playful excursion. Matthew Van Fleet, photos by Brian Stanton. |
